OUR COACH

This is our coach. She is called “The Castaway”. We ordered this Newmar Dutch Star 4002 in October of 2015 and it was built sometime over the next few months. We took delivery of our coach in June of 2016.

We currently flat tow a 2018 Lincoln MKX behind the coach.

If you become a castaway, this is not a bad way to go. A home away from home.

We decided to make our dream of travelling North America and living mostly full-time in an RV a reality. We had narrowed down our choice of RV to a Class A Diesel Pusher. In September of 2015, we went to the RV Show in Hershey, Pennsylvania to look at all of the potential candidates. From the show, we had a shortlist of manufacturers: Newmar, Entegra, and Tiffin. We kept coming back to Newmar. We loved the 40-foot coaches and we loved the 4002 floorplan.

In October of 2015 we made an offer to build a custom order Newmar Dutch Star. This was probably one of the most dramatic decisions we have made in our married lives.

Here is the complete list of The Castaway’s features (an asterisk indicates an option that we added to our build or added later to our coach).
